Korea Railroad Museum

The Korea Railroad Museum is a railway museum in Uiwang-si dedicated to the history of train transportation. The collection includes thousands of objects and original train vehicles displayed both indoors and outside.

The museum opened in 1988 and sits on grounds connected to Bugok Station, which began operations in 1944 during a major railway reorganization. The location links the past of train transportation to present-day exhibitions.

The museum shows how trains shaped Korea's development and what role they played in people's daily lives. You can see how train carriages, wagons, and furnishings changed over the decades.

The museum is located near Uiwang Station and is easy to reach by public transport. Visitors should allow enough time to explore both the indoor galleries and the outdoor exhibition areas.

Several of the displayed vehicles, including historic train cars from earlier decades, have received official recognition as cultural treasures. This makes them especially valuable pieces of the national railway heritage.
